Chapter 178 - 178: Reentry into the Black Market
Cain was teleported by Sabrina and, in the blink of an eye, disappeared from the psychic gym. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an unknown alley.
After leaving the alley and observing his surroundings, he realized he was in a completely unfamiliar place, though he was glad he was still in Saffron City.
He asked a passerby to find out where he was and learned he was in the southwest of Saffron City, while Sabrina's gym was in the northeast of the city.
Remember, this is Saffron City, not a small town like Mahogany Town. Sabrina could teleport him here with a simple gesture, and if she wanted, she could send him to a forest outside the city in the blink of an eye.
In a common forest, it wouldn't be a big problem, but if he appeared in a forest with many species and groups of Pokémon, even if he managed to escape, he'd probably come out quite injured.
He couldn't help but shiver. These psychics with such powerful abilities were truly terrifying.
To withstand their abilities, one would need either a strong enough Dark-type Pokémon, at least capable of resisting the psychic abilities of an elite-level Pokémon, or improve one's own psychic ability.
However, thinking of his own psychic ability, Cain shook his head in resignation. It seemed that training his Pokémon was the more reliable option.
Hopefully, with a Pokémon like Murkrow, Sneasel, or Scorupi, one of them could reach elite level and offer decent resistance.
He took a taxi and headed to the nearest entry point of the black market.
In a secluded corner without people, he changed clothes, put on an identity mask, and a wide black cloak before re-entering Saffron City's black market.
